One With The Birds

(início)

          G   F             C
Leave me alone is all that I say
           G       F               C
When I have nothing in me to give away
                 F       G             C
A purple martin in her house, she hollers at me
        G      F             C
Why be inhuman ? Why be like me ?
             G     F              C
Like so many robins, like so many doves
             G        F             C
Like so many lovebirds with so many loves
                      F       G            C
Like the songs of the bobwhite without any words
              G   F                    C
When we are inhuman we're one with the birds
              G     F                   C
At six in the morning you rise from the pillow
                G       F             C
Stand steaming above me ; I slumber below
                 F     G                     C
I'm one with the blanket laying fragrant and loose
                  G          F                   C
You're one with a whipporwill, you're one with a goose
             G     F              C
Like so many robins, like so many doves
             G       F              C
Like so many lovebirds with so many loves
                      F      G             C
Like the songs of the bobwhite without any words
             G    F                    C
When we are inhuman we're one with the birds
Dm            G      C
So tweet with me and widely spread
Dm         G         C
Your olive wings ; embrace my head
Dm       G       C
Fly with me 'til we are dead
    F            G
And one with the birds
             ( G )  F               C
Like so many seagulls, like so many hawks
             G      F             C
Like so many thrushes and so many cocks
               F       G              C          G            F
A swallow will tell you without using misleading heartrending words
( - - - - - F - )  G                   C
When we are inhuman we're one with the birds
                  F    C Dm                   (F)
"When we hide our feelings we may as well fly away"
